Wireless worked fine yesterday, gone today

Hi all, relatively new to linux, setting up wireless connections has always been difficult for me. I installed OpenSuse yesterday and was able to immediately connect to my school’s unprotected network, and I was able to connect to my home network last night. However, when I was trying to correctly type in my WEP key for my home network, Knetworkmanager brought up the school’s network by default to enter the secrets for instead of my home network. I accidentally entered the WEP key for my home network into the secrets for the school network, and now today I can’t connect to the school’s network. In fact, I can’t even detect it.

Just in case it’s important, I have an HP Pavillion DV5-1113us and the wireless card is an Atheros AR928X Wireless network Adapter.

I’m not absolutely certain about kde, but you should be able to right click the network manager and manage the connections. If you just delete them all, it will redetect when it sees it and on your home network it would ask for they key again. (You’re using WEP? DO you know that can be cracked in less than 5 minutes?)
